On Wednesday in London @Aslak Hellesøy + @joshski will be running a short evening workshop on sub-second TDD. https://www.meetup.com/BDDLondon/events/241841758
hi! this Thursday in the Washington, D.C. area, I’m presenting “BDD for Everyone” at the Agile Coaching DC meetup
it involves me live-coding the bowling game using Cucumber and Perl (to really drive home the point that you don’t need to understand the code to understand what the product is doing), and the audience split into groups of PO, tester, and dev to heckle me in particular ways as I go along 🙂
if you’d like to RT something: https://twitter.com/schmonz/status/950764382832734208
Hi @schmonz! I'll line up a tweet US time later today. Best of luck! Can we send you some stickers? I suspect they won't arrive on time for Thursday but you could pass them around your office/have them ready for next the next meetup?

December 12th - CukenSpace evening keynote by Ellen Gottesdiener on Product Backlog Refinement with Structured Conversations

If you've never attended an open space, it's a brilliant way to explore topics and self organise around things you're most interested in.
Drop in cucumber-oss at the payment stage for $150 off your ticket if you book this week.
More details you need are below, but drop me a line or DM if you have any questions - https://cucumber.io/events/2018/12/12/cukenspace-charlotte
Anybody coming to Nordic Testing Days 2019? https://www.nordictestingdays.eu
Anybody coming to European Testing Conference in Valencia, Spain February 14-15?
hi all - Mechanical Rock are running a BDD Kickstart in Perth, Australia on the 18/19th of Feb. Check it out: https://ti.to/public-bdd-kickstart/perth-feb-public-bdd-kickstart/
set the channel topic: Announcements and discussions about public Cucumber-related events
@nhojpatrick we don't have a date yet but we will run CukenFest London (http://cukenfest.cucumber.io/) again in Spring
We also haven't worked out that detail either 🙂 - Last year for the 2-day event it was around £650 (incl. food, drink, party etc) full price, it'll be less for the early-bird.
i don’t think it was until late dec or early jan that i saw anything about CukenFest last year
as i’m going to JaxLondon in october and thinking about Fosdem (Brussels) in feb, but as the Java room will be only running for 1 day probably i’m wondering what i might attend the other day
Was thinking about JFall. Maybe Fossdem or Devoxx. Havent decided yet. Kinda the travel-hotel-travel stuff.
*Thread Reply:* look out for a macbook pro with cucumber and LJC stickers
Any upcoming training events over the next few months on the east coast?
Hey @saladguy - hopefully running some public classes across the US in 2020. Hoping to run one in Boston in the first half of the year
Thanks @theo. If you could link me to an Eventbrite or some webpage of event details, my company would be interested.
*Thread Reply:* We haven't made any ticket pages just yet. How many folks you looking to send?
*Thread Reply:* Don't really have a headcount, would depend on event agenda. But say a dozen or so, if it looks great.
Would like to go over the event details, what topics you plan to cover, so on. Please DM me the ticket webpage or just a written agenda once you draft it. I'll take it up in my company and get back to you.
Thanks!
*Thread Reply:* OK - For a dozen or so, it might be worth thinking about a on-site class. I'll DM about that option now
*Thread Reply:* Sure, that would be great! And I'm new to this community, so sorry I don't know you - are you a developer with Cucumber?
I am a developer in a mid sized company and we've been trying to nail Cucumber/BDD right for about an year now. Aiming at test automation.
will anyone be heading to Fosdem (https://fosdem.org/2020/) this year?

:webinar: Webinar :webinar: Improve your software development process with Behaviour-Driven development (BDD) using Cucumber.js, Cucumber-Electron and CrossBrowserTesting Tuesday, March 24, 2020, 2:00 PM GMT and again at 5:00 PM GMT
Speakers - Aslak Hellesoy & Nicholas Brown
Integrating BDD into your agile workflow is a powerful way to improve collaboration, reduce rework, and harness automation to create trustworthy documentation.
In this webinar, we will cover:
• Writing Gherkin scenarios & step definitions
• Direct automation at the domain layer with Cucumber.js
• In-process UI automation using Cucumber-Electron
• Augmenting the BDD process with CrossBrowserTesting
• Live Demo
• Live Q&A with SmartBear Experts
We'll have a tiny app (JavaScript/React frontend + JavaScript/Node.js backend) that will provide a hands-on look at this in practice. You will see how developers can use these tools to guide the development of new functionality, and get feedback in just a few seconds - even for full-stack tests through the UI.
Hey folks - If you didn't see over in #cukenfest - CukenFest Remote is happening on June 3rd-4th 🎉. It's our annual conference about BDD and high-performing software teams - one day of talks followed by a day of open space.

It will be recorded. Not sure if it will be available before Thursday, but I'll ask the right people.
@Tom Guest I've asked, and they'll try but no promises
*Thread Reply:* Whatever you did worked - just received an email with a link to the recording. Thanks

can anyone recommend a good class for some bdd newbies? we are just getting started and need something that teaches a cross functional (all three amigos) team how to write good bdd. i know cucumber has some individual training videos on their learning site, but i'm looking for something more formal... either in person or in person virtually. TIA!
